  • Louis McHenry Howe (January 14, 1871 – April 18, 1936) was an American reporter for the New York Herald best known for acting as an early political advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Born to a wealthy family in Indianapolis, Indiana, Howe was a small, sickly, and asthmatic child. The family moved to Saratoga Springs, New York, after serious financial losses. Howe married Grace Hartley and became a journalist with a small paper that his father purchased. He spent the next decade freelancing for the New York Herald and working various jobs. Howe was then assigned to cover the New York state legislature in 1906, and soon became a political operative for Thomas Mott Osborne, a Democratic opponent of the Tammany Hall political machine. After Osborne fired Howe in 1909, Howe attached himself to rising Democratic star Franklin D. Roosevelt, with whom he worked for the rest of his life. Howe oversaw Roosevelt's campaign for the New York State Senate, worked with him in the Navy Department, and acted as an advisor and campaign manager during Roosevelt's 1920 vice presidential run. After Roosevelt contracted polio in 1921, resulting in partial paralysis, Howe became Roosevelt's public representative, keeping his political career alive during his recovery. He arranged Roosevelt's 1924 "Happy Warrior" convention speech that returned him to the public eye, and helped to run Roosevelt's narrowly successful 1928 campaign to become Governor of New York. Howe then spent the next four years laying the groundwork for Roosevelt's landslide 1932 presidential victory. Named Roosevelt's secretary, Howe helped the president to shape the early programs of the New Deal, particularly the Civilian Conservation Corps. Howe grew ill shortly after Roosevelt's election, and died before the end of his first term. Howe also acted as a political advisor to Franklin's wife, Eleanor, and he encouraged her to take an active role in politics, introducing her to women's groups and coaching her in public speaking. Eleanor later called Howe one of the most influential people in her life. Franklin Roosevelt biographer Jean Edward Smith called Howe "a backroom man without equal in Democratic politics", and Roosevelt publicly credited Howe and James Farley for his first election to the presidency in 1932.

  • Louis McHenry Howe, född 14 januari 1871 i Indianapolis, Indiana, död 18 april 1936 i Bethesda, Maryland, var en amerikansk journalist och politisk rådgivare åt Franklin D. Roosevelt. Howe och Roosevelt inledde sitt samarbete 1913 då Roosevelt utsågs till biträdande marinminister. Howe blev god vän till familjen Roosevelt. I valet 1920 var Roosevelt demokraternas vicepresidentkandidat till presidentkandidaten James M. Cox men de förlorade stort mot republikanernas Warren G. Harding och Calvin Coolidge. Trots valförlusten var Howe övertygad om att Roosevelt hade en lysande politisk bana framför sig med sikte på att bli president men i augusti 1921 drabbades Roosevelt av polio och blev förlamad från midjan och nedåt. Roosevelt var övertygad om att hans politiska karriär var över men Howe gav inte upp. Under åren som följde fokuserade Howe sig på Franklins fru Eleanor Roosevelt och övertalade henne att tala på olika politiska möten och hon började ta en allt mer aktivare roll inom politiken. År 1928 ställde Roosevelt upp i guvernörsvalet i delstaten New York och vann. Han omvaldes 1930. År 1932 var det äntligen dags för Roosevelt att kandidera i presidentvalet där han vann stort över presidenten Herbert Hoover. Howe blev Roosevelts sekreterare och stabschef när denne tillträdde som president i mars 1933. Howe avled den 18 april 1936 och hedrades med en statsbegravning tre dagar senare. (sv)
